Well. What can I say about myself? My name is Lani, I’m 16 and live in Australia.Pretty much like everyone here on fictionpress, I want to be a writer! Writing is my life; it’s what I live for. I also dance (ballet, pointe, tap and jazz), play piano and do karate (black belt)I mainly like to write thrillers, or death/depressing related things. I read thrillers, crime/horror, and ummm, yeah, that’s mainly it. I also love writing poetry and lyrics.

Well, I have always loved writing, but really started getting into it just over two years ago. Since then, I have entered comps (won a few, too), gone to a John Marsden writing camp, taken creative writing classes, and chosen ‘writing for authors’ as an elective at school.If you are going to read my stories (PLEASE PLEASE READ AND REVIEW) then PLEASE comment on my writing, not just the story. Thanx.

A note:if i have said i added your story to my favourite list, and you dont see it there, dont worry! i had too many stories which i ADORED and which inspired me, and when i reached my limit, i started saving them in word, under 'fictionpress stories', so that i can fit more in my fav story list! so yeah, i have kept them all! (not stealing them, dont worry, im not that kinda person. Just kepeing them so i can re read them all the time!)

This was inspired by a dream and a quote that have been haunting me for awhile. "Every living creature dies alone." Is something we don't think about much, until we think we are going to die. This story goes deep into that feeling.

This is one of my very touching poems. This poem is about The Jew's during the Holocaust. It is sometimes very sad, but i think it is one of my best poems yet. My poem does not discriminate Jews, but tells the story of what happend to them during a huge t

Over the Christmas holidays, I went to India with my family and while we there, we witnessed a murder. This is an acocunt of the murder, that I will hopefully submit to a magazine which accepts non fiction pieces.

Written on the school bus this morning about the stage I'm going through in life. I call it 'the darkness'. The song is about wanting to leave this life I'm in, about the places i want to be, and the people i want to be around. Please R&R!

'Not knowing it’s her last night, she rests her head on the satin pillow, thinking and dreaming.' Its about a girl who has a heart problem and dies in the night. Short and deep. please R&R. It's kind of personal.

Its metaphoric in a way. How everything in life is going perfect. Everything is going well, and your sheltered from all the pain. But something always goes wrong. Its about a wine glass. Please R&R, not my best poem, but i like it.

Someone dwelling in the depths of their despair. They are ready for death, but one single smile changes their mind. Please R&R. This is my favorite story i have written. It is really intense and deep. I'm really proud of it.
